Add some pink frosted lipstick and dark blue eye shadow.”  \nI narrowed my eyes at him.“I don’t want my hair pulled back tight the way you like. Brady wouldn’t like it either. He likes to touch my hair. You know, run his hands through it.”  \nGeorges gave me a horrified stare.“Not on your wedding day, Palmer! What about the photos? Tell him to keep his caveman hands to himself until the wedding night.”  \nJust the words wedding night brought on a tingle of excitement. Not that Brady didn’t bring it every time we had sex, but the idea of wedding night sex was especially hot. He’d told me about a fantasy involving his face between my thighs while I still had the dress on, and I couldn’t deny that I was now fantasizing about it too.  \n“We still have quite a few details to work out,” Georges said, looking up from the bridal magazine he was flipping through to give me a chastising look over the dark rims of his glasses.  \n“I know,” I said, snapping out of my sexy reverie about Brady.“Let me get out my wedding planner.”  \n“Let’s finish this over sushi,” Georges said. “I skipped lunch and I’mstarving.”  \nI glanced down at my watch and shook my head.“Ugh, it’s after six. I can’t. My mom asked me to stop by her house on my way home, and I told her I’d be there around six.”  \n“Damn you. Now I have to get carryout.” Georges rolled his eyes dramatically.  \n“I’ll buy lunch tomorrow,” I said.“Don’t forget that we’re going to the florist’s shop for a dry run of the centerpieces.”  \nGeorges’ face brightened.“Let’s go visit the dress again too.”  \n“Maybe,” I said, smiling at him. “It has been a full week since we last saw it. I’ll see you in the morning, okay?”  \nHe nodded and turned back to the magazine. I checked my phone on the way to the parking deck, smiling when I saw a message from Brady.  \nBrady: Going to see Dad. Be home late. Lunch tomorrow? Love you.  \nI wrote back, glancing up occasionally to make sure I didn’t crash into anyone.  \nMe: Lunch with G tomorrow. I’ll cook dinner tomorrow night at my place. Love you too.  \nWe still called it my place even though he’d practically moved in. Once married, we planned to live in my tiny bungalow instead of his tiny apartment. Between Brady’s building skills and my design ones, we’d made my place into a cozy love nest.  \nOn the drive to Mom’s, I let my mind wander to the job I’d just been hired for. I was designing a nursery for twins – a boy and a girl. My client loved a traditional look, so I was using gingham, soft yellows and greensand gorgeous white painted furniture.  \nThis job was creating unexpectedly strong maternal pangs. Brady and I both wanted kids, but we wanted to wait a couple of years. He was paying a price for his father ’s lousy decisions, and we both had to focus on our careers for a while.  \nStill, I let myself dream about the day we’d have a baby. Hopefully one with his dark hair and bright green eyes.  \nI parked in front of Mom’s house, noticing the faded maroon shutter that had been han","cbCaimlfK1MawzQ7","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimlfK1MawzQ7","pdf",927514,177,"English","en",105,"# Chapter 1 - Palmer\n## Bridal magazine planning and scheduling\n## Messages with Brady and relationship life\n## Visit to Mom and time with Danny","[{\"question\":\"What issue does Palmer and Georges discuss at the start of Chapter 1?\",\"answer\":\"They discuss bridal look details shown in a magazine, including hairstyles and makeup preferences, and how those choices should fit the wedding context.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Palmer manage her wedding timeline and daily commitments?\",\"answer\":\"Palmer references upcoming errands like a dry run for centerpieces and a visit to the florist, while also planning around lunch with Georges and a stop at her mother’s house.\"},{\"question\":\"What family situation does Palmer encounter when she visits Mom?\",\"answer\":\"Palmer meets her brother Danny in his wheelchair;
